Hey everyone, been a cacti user for about 5 months now - awsome work guys !!

I searched the net for hours looking for a way to monitor qmail on my servers.. Not too much information to be found other than qmailmrtg. after searching for OIDs or MIBs, I happend to come across exactly what I needed for remote qmail monitoring. I have created templates that can be imported to cacti.

Input is greatly appreciated on this template..

I did a bit of work with this too, and wrote it up on my site (in the sig). Hrm. I should finish that writeup I'll dig out the other OIDs I used soon. It works the same way as it sounds like yours does though (net-snmp & qmailmrtg7), so I doubt that it's news anyway.

Some of them still sugges usa of exec , wihle it has been replaced.
Other templates contain mibs instead of OIDs... didnt exactly got, why do we have templates with mibs, while Cacti use OIDs... has to be some historical thing.

So my question is simple.... does anyone around have WORKING template for monitoring qmail with list of all lines needed for snmpd.conf ?

Or do i have to be an snmp guru to get a clue, where to obtain all those lovely OIDs to get data out of snmp and not just SMTPd concurency ?

What if I didn't install Qmail using the lifewithqmail install instructions? Can I simply change the paths within my snmpd.conf and import the template? I'll give it a shot. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes. I still use the 'extend'-based templates I made a few years ago. I have never used LWQ for an install, so I know it works otherwise. You just need to point the scripts at your log files as appropriate.
